Combining the air distribution
yourself
You can cancel the AUTO program by
selecting specific air distribution patterns
for your personal comfort.
Adjusting air distribution
You also enjoy the option of adjusting the
air distribution manually to obtain a climate
that is ideally adapted to your personal
requirements. The AUTO program is deac-
tivated.

Turn the controller to adjust the air distribu-
tion.
Air on windshield and side
windows.
Air to the upper body. You
can also adjust individually
the air temperature of the vent outlets for
the upper body, see below.

Adjusting temperature for the upper
body
This function provides you with the option
of making minor adjustments to achieve
maximum comfort.
Use the temperature setting to adjust the
amount of cool air that is added to the air-
flow emerging from the vent outlets for the
upper body. We recommend a moderate
temperature setting, as cooler air helps
promote fatigue-free driving.
Storing and calling up an individual
setting
You can store your individual setting after
adjusting the air distribution manually.
Select "Memorize" and confirm.
Now you can reselect the preset climate
that precisely reflects your personal
requirements.

A congenial climate
108 Select "Individual" and confirm. The AUTO
program is deactivated.
Microfilter/activated-charcoal filter
The microfilter removes dust and pollen
from the incoming air. The activated-char-
coal filter provides additional protection by
filtering gaseous pollutants from the out-
side air. Your BMW center replaces this
combined filter as a standard part of your
scheduled maintenance.
You can select a display of more detailed
information in the Service Interval Display,
refer to page 81.
Rear air conditioner*
The following settings and operating
modes can be selected and adjusted sep-
arately on the left and right sides:
1Adjusting cooling
2Maximum cooling
3Adjusting air supply manually
4Switching off rear air conditioner
Switching on rear air conditioner
To switch on the rear air conditioner
>select maximum cooling 2
>press the OFF button 4 again
>in the Control Center, select "Rear air
cond." and confirm, refer to Switching

Adjusting cooling
You can also set the system to
provide the desired level of
cooling by turning. We recom-
mend setting the system for
moderate cooling. When you
start the vehicle, this system ensures that
the selected setting is achieved as quickly
as possible. It then maintains this tempera-
ture, regardless of the season.
Adjusting air supply manually
You can adjust the air supply by
turning.
Maximum cooling
This program quickly provides
maximum cooling.
The system automatically switches to the
recirculated-air mode while a high-speed
stream of air simultaneously emerges from
the vent outlets. For this reason you should
ensure that these outlets are open before
selecting this program.
Switching off rear air conditioner
The air conditioner is switched
off.
Press the button again to switch back on.

Independent ventilation
System operation is controlled using the
Control Center. You can set two different
times for the system to start.
The independent ventilation blows air into
the passenger compartment to lower inte-
rior temperatures.The system remains on for 30 minutes.
You can also switch the system on and off
manually. Since the system uses a sub-
stantial amount of electrical current, you
should refrain from activating it twice in
succession without allowing the battery to
be recharged in normal operation between
use.
The independent ventilation is available for
preprogrammed operation at outside tem-
peratures above approx. 597/156 and
for direct activation at any temperature, but
is not operational when the vehicle is
underway.
The air enters the passenger compartment
through the vent outlets in the instrument
panel, which can be adjusted for both
direction and airflow. These outlets must
be open for the system to operate.

Practical interior accessories
112 The device can be operated as of ignition
on.
If the device cannot be operated
after repeated programming, check
whether the original hand-held transmitter
uses an alternating-code system. To do so,
either read the instructions of the original
hand-held transmitter or press and hold
down the programmed memory button 1 of
the integrated universal remote control.
If the indicator lamp 2 on the integrated
universal remote control flashes quickly for
a brief period and then remains lit up for
approx. two seconds, this indicates that
the original hand-held transmitter is
equipped with an alternating-code sytem.
In the case of an alternating-code system,
program the memory buttons 1 as
described at the section on alternating-
code transmitters.<
Alternating-code transmitters
Consult the operating instructions of the
unit you wish to set when programming the
integrated universal remote control. You
will find information there on the possibili-
ties for synchronization.
When programming hand-held transmitters
that employ an alternating code, please
observe the following supplementary
instructions:
Programming will be easier with the
aid of a second person.<
1.Park your vehicle within the range of the
remote-controlled device
2.Program the integrated universal
remote control as described at the sec-
tion on fixed-code hand-held transmit-
ters
3.Localize the button on the receiver of
the device you want to set up, e.g. on
the upper section of the motor
4.Press the button on the receiver of the
device you want to set up. After step 4,
you have approx. 30 seconds for step 5
5.Press the programmed memory
button 1 on the integrated universal
remote control three times. The corresponding memory button 1 is
now programmed with the signal of the
original hand-held transmitter.
If you have any additional questions,
please contact your BMW center.<
Clearing memory buttons
Individual memory buttons 1 can not be
cleared. However, you clear all three mem-
ory buttons 1 together as follows:
Press both outer buttons 1 of the inte-
grated universal remote control for approx.
20 seconds, maintaining pressure until the
indicator lamp 2 starts to flash.

Break-in procedures
To ensure that your vehicle continues to
furnish optimized economy of operation
throughout an extended service life, we
request that you devote careful attention
to the following section.
Engine and differential
Up to 1,200 miles/2,000 km:
During this initial period you should attempt
to avoid constant, steady-state operation
and vary both vehicle and engine speeds
as often as possible. Until the break-in
period has been completed you should
also refrain from exceeding the following:
>4,500 rpm or 105 mph/170 km/h.
Always obey all official speed limits.
Avoid full-throttle operation and use of the
transmission's kickdown mode during
these initial miles.
Once you have driven 1,200 miles/
2,000 km, the engine or vehicle speeds
can be gradually increased.
You should also comply with these break-in
procedures should the engine or differen-
tial need to be replaced at a later point.
Tires
Due to technical factors associated with
their manufacture, tires do not achieve their
full traction potential until after an initial
break-in period.Therefore, drive reservedly
during the first 200 miles/300 km.
Brake system
Brakes require an initial break-in period of
approx. 300 miles/500 km to achieve opti-
mized contact and wear patterns between
brake pads and rotors.
General driving notes
High temperatures
Extreme temperatures occur at the
catalytic converter on this and every
catalyst-equipped vehicle. Do not remove
the heat shields installed adjacent to vari-
ous sections of the exhaust system, and
never apply undercoating to them.
When driving, standing at idle and while
parking take care to avoid possible contact
between the hot exhaust system and any
highly flammable materials such as hay,
leaves, grass, etc. Such contact could lead
to a fire, accompanied by the risk of serious
property damage as well as personal
injury.<
Parking the vehicle
Condensation forms in the air conditioner
system during operation, and then exits
under the vehicle. Traces of condensed
water under the vehicle are thus normal.
Before driving into the car wash
1.Fold in the exterior mirrors, refer to
page 51, as otherwise they could be
damaged due to the width of the vehicle
2.Leave the remote control in the ignition
lock, as otherwise the position P of the
automatic transmission will automati-
cally be selected when the remote con-
trol is removed, refer to pages 61
and 67.
With Comfort Access, be sure to
observe the instructions on page 61
3.Release the parking brake, especially
when you have activated Automatic
Hold, refer to pages 62 and 63.
Hydroplaning
When driving on wet or slushy roads,
reduce road speed. If you do not, a
wedge of water can form between tires and
road surface. This phenomenon is referred
